Not much - just straight tubes instead of mufflers and a cut intake lid. Neither one of these are power adders of any significance. Here's my complete timeslip info:
Reaction time: 0.111 (OK, so I fell asleep!)
60 foot: 1.933
330 foot: 5.522
1/8 time: 8.488
1/8 MPH: 83.83
1000 foot: 11.085
1/4 time: 13.246
1/4 MPH: 105.97
All of these were personal bests at the time except the reaction time (of course) and the 1/4 MPH. The run was done at New England Dragway, in southern New Hampshire, on October 24, 2003. That late in the fall we can get sunny days in the 50's with very high air pressure. so the density altitude was probably -500 feet or better.

My best is just a little slower than MTVette. 8.55 in the 1/8th mile, I don't remember the MPH, but the ET is what matters. Mine is a 95 coupe, A4, SLP Intake, Meziere water pump, muffler eliminators and otherwise all stock with over 200,000 miles. Oh, I forgot, I was running Nitto DRs at 18 psi.

Remember reaction time means absolutely nothing, 60 ft means a whole lot. Good luck and have a great time.

Used to be the old New River Valley Speedway, Now Shelor Motor Mile Speedway,(between Radford and Dublin), they have a short oval track and have added a 1/8 mile drag strip. Nice place if your looking for something to do on Satuarday,
mostly local guy's driving, the original op in this thread is my nephew,
just got his Corvette after someone a$$ ended his Camaro one day. This will be his first time on the track with the vett.
